Moving and storage in Des Moines.

Storage usually appears between two dates: the closing that moved, the lease that ended early, the renovation that ran long. KBA Movers can handle the move into a unit or container and the move back out when you are ready.

What goes in has to come back out.

How a unit is loaded decides how painful the retrieval is. Items you will need first belong at the front, with a walkway kept clear to the back wall and a written inventory of what went in.

Confirm the facility's access hours, unit size, elevator or drive-up access, and any insurance the facility requires before move day. Ask KBA Movers what storage arrangements it can support for your dates.

Planning checklist.

Gather these details before calling or opening the quote form.

  1. Confirm the unit size, floor, and whether access is drive-up or by elevator.

  2. Check the facility's access hours and gate or entry codes.

  3. Decide what you will need first and keep it near the front.

  4. Keep a written inventory of everything placed in the unit.

Three steps from request to preparation.

A practical sequence for discussing and preparing this service.

Size the unit

Review the inventory against the unit or container size before booking either one.

Load with retrieval in mind

Place long-term items at the back, keep a center walkway, and label every box on two sides.

Plan the way out

Book the retrieval once the destination date is firm and confirm access hours at both ends.

Questions about storage moves.

Use these answers as planning guidance, then confirm the details for your specific move.

Does KBA Movers provide the storage unit?

Do not assume the unit is included. Ask which storage arrangements KBA Movers can support for your dates and confirm who rents and pays for the space.

How long can items stay in storage?

That is set by your agreement with the storage facility, not by the move itself. Confirm the term, the access hours, and any facility insurance requirement directly.

Can items be packed differently for storage?

Say up front that items are going into storage. A longer stay changes how things should be wrapped, stacked, and protected.
